Matcha Castella Sponge Cake
Castella, or Kasutera, or Kastera (in Japanese カステラ), is a popular Japanese sponge cake made with egg, sugar, flour and starch syrup. It is a very soft and moist sponge cake. Japanese Kastera is the most fluffy sponge cake in the world and it is so delicious. If you go to Japan, you will be able to taste many flavours of kastera in all Japan. For us, the best kastera is Matcha green tea kastera with honey. Yes! you can cook this kastera at home! We would like to show you how to cook.
